Things Can Change

9:30 AM

(December 17th)

By the time I wake up its 9:30 AM. Honestly I wouldn't have woken up if I didn't smell pancakes and coffee Mmmm. I get up and tiptoe upstairs to brush my teeth. Morning breath is a big turn off for me. After I am done I go downstairs, wrap my arms around Charli, and whisper good morning in her ear. She jumped when I wrapped my arms around her.

"Your hands are freezing."

"I know I felt you jump when I wrapped my arms around you." I say as I laugh and walk over to the table to sit down.

"So what's for breakfast even though I can smell the pancakes?"

"Urm pancakes with blueberries on top and your choice if milk or orange juice with no pulp." Charli states confidently and then adds

"I remembered you don't like pulp in your orange juice either."

I laugh a little, stand up so I can grab a cup, walk over to the fridge and get the orange juice. She knows me so well...I totally forgot that she liked pulp free orange juice too.

"So how did you sleep considering the fact that we slept on the floor?" I laugh towards the end of my sentence

"Urm it was ok I guess it wasn't that bad."

"So then why are you up so early?"

"I forgot to turn my alarm off since I would be at school and in 2nd period by now."

Charli said with a smile on her face

"Would you like to go to second period instead of being here and spending time with me?" I state with a little sarcasm

"Of course not I would rather spend my time with you rather than anyone or anything else." she states thoughtfully.

"You know that don't you?" she adds

"I know, I was being sarcastic, but clearly it's too early for me to be completely sarcastic." I reply

"Ha ha very funny." Charli commented in a mocking tone

"Okay I have our cups of orange juice and plates on the table, anything else?

"Urm forks?"

"Got em."

"Then I think that's it...plate please." I stood up, handed her a plate, wrapped both of my arms around her, and nuzzled my chin into her shoulder.

"Stop you tickling me." She laughed the entire time of trying to get that sentence out.

"Okay, but only because I don't want you to burn yourself, or the pancakes." She narrowed her eyes at me with a smirk on her face. I couldn't hold it in...I burst into laughter as she joined me. Just my luck as I threw my head back from laughing I slipped on something and fell flat on my ass.

"Shit!" I yelled...I don't even know what I slipped on. Of course Charli burst into laughter and after seeing how pink her cheeks turned seconds after she first started laughing I joined her.

"Are-"she started to say but was cut off by her chuckling. "Are you okay?" she finally finishes the sentence.

"Yeah I'm fine finish making your pancakes so we can eat together." I say to her, but it comes out more like a command than me simply saying to her.
